I'm planning on getting Bad Company for the 360. I don't have Live, so online is out of the question. Apparently the game doesn't have offline splitscreen or co-op, so I'm hoping that the single-player campaign will last quite a while if I'm going to buy it. For those who've played it, how long is the campaign? Thanks.How long is the single-player campaign for Battlefield: Bad Company?
If you play it for a couple hours a night, you can get through it in a week or so, depending on how good you are. There are definitely other games with longer single-player experiencesHow long is the single-player campaign for Battlefield: Bad Company?
more than 8 hours on hard. Best play it on hard mode for challenges and 'longevity'
pretty shite

What is the difference between the promises of the previous Bush campaign and the current McCain campaign?
Is there a difference between what they want for the country?What is the difference between the promises of the previous Bush campaign and the current McCain campaign?
McCain has a history of voting against wasteful spending. Bush clearly doesn't. Neither does Obama. What is the difference between the promises of the previous Bush campaign and the current McCain campaign?
What is the difference in the noobama campaign? Isn't it the same Gore/Kerry routine. The front man is black/white but the song is the same. When will the democrats learn? America does not want this liberal agenda.
Wow. You ask the conservatives about the facts and they can't report em. LOLmicrosoft word

How would the media conduct a campaign against a government.?
The media is a business and is run for profit, can their opinions be trusted and would this be benifitical for our nation.How would the media conduct a campaign against a government.?
Good question. The media is really powerful in this regard, but they are also a slave to the public and the advertisers to some degree.
For good examples of media 'wars' against a government, check out archive newspapers and tv footage of the coverage of the Whitlam government's last 18 months in office.
Everything the government did was presented in the worst possible light, even to the extent that unflattering photographs and language was routinely used to describe even very ordinary matters.
It's a little like the current Belinda Neal furore in Australia.
Long before the police have made any enquiries, she had been tried in the court of the media and the results are plain ~ every photo used of her is unflattering, none are the grromed pics of publicity shots, they are all 'candid' shots of her looking grumpy, etc.
A little like the way right wing media routinely depicts Hillary Clinton ~ they have thousands of images to select, but almost always use one which shows her in an unflattering light.
In this way, the public is presented with a certain representation of the person.
Use of language is similarly contrived. Consider how certain words are used. Some people describing Fred Nile (NSW politician) might say he is a 'committed christian'. Coupled with a nice publicity photo of him with his hair done, a freshly pressed shirt, a kindly smile, soft lighting and a neutral background, an image is created of a conservative but friendly man ~ old fashioned but caring.
Now take the same man, get a pic of him holding a placard, hair dishevelled, mouth open and angry face, yelling at a passer by, and couple it with the caption 'hard line right wing politician Fred Nile, who uses the title 'reverend' is pictured in a heated exchange with father of four Bill Smith'; and ~ without saying anything false ~ you have created the impression that Nile is a bit of a whacko, that he has socially anti-progressive views and shouts at people a lot.
It's not the same warm, friendly image and although most of us know the press can manipulate these things, it does impact our thinking and the way we feel about things, often without us even realising it.
Another excellent example is the constant, unrelenting 'war' the Murdoch newspapers have run against the royal family in the UK over several decades.
Once considered respectable and admirable in the public mind, the royal family are now little more than fodder for headlines, with every minute detail of their lives examined and mocked.
While this might seem trivial when it comes to talking about the royal choice in cereal, toothpaste and etc (all subjects which have been discussed in the UK newspapers), the 'damage' is incremental, with each little piece adding day by day over several decades into the received public 'wisdom' that the royal family are a certain type of people who do certain things.
Of course, this is almost entirely illusory. Even if we know which brand of cereal someone eats, we still do not 'know' them, but it has helped create the modern celebrity cult or fixation.
So, no, I would not say to trust any single media representation. Instead, read and view widely and from as many different types of sources as possible, and even then, remain cynical!
Cheers :-)How would the media conduct a campaign against a government.?
The media is run by men - Therefore, there is a focus on sport, sport, sport, and sexism galore.... So no, their opinions can not be trusted necessarily, because they will always be biased however they like.
The media industry is massive, and ALL about money. In saying that, money buys anything you want! Media is a mega-power and in so many ways, government relies on the media to get their messages across to the people.
People who are in business are there in business so that they are not out of business. Media is a very big business.
Only 'nation' takes credit, craves for profit. If it has a stake or develops one in business like America whose government says its business is 'business' then the story has a happy ending under the present international dispensation.
They have tried every thing they can against the President...

What was the most memorable televised, campaign sponsored ad during the Obama-McCain presidential race?
Was it a positive ad, or a negative one? Why do you remember it? What was it about?What was the most memorable televised, campaign sponsored ad during the Obama-McCain presidential race?
It was that half hour infomercial that Obama purchased.
I never watched it, I presume it was positive (toward himself), but the fact that he raised enough $$$ to be able to buy a 30 minute block of time on 5 networks was awe inspiring.What was the most memorable televised, campaign sponsored ad during the Obama-McCain presidential race?
a positive ad?????
Does the republican party still DO those????
all I heard was alot of BS about how the other guy was gonna be the Anti-Christ, and RUIN the country.
I never ONCE heard a reason WHYYYYYYYYY I should vote FOR McCain.
Only BS made up reasons, why NOT to vote for Obama.
They only made me WANT to vote for Obama even more.
Because if you couldn't think of a sinlge positive thing to say about yourself.......then why would I vote for you?
Obama put forth ideas and hope.........
McCain put forth.......well, Obama bashing.

How does soft money and incumbency make it difficult for congress to reform campaign finance?
Why are these two factors so difficult to regulate?How does soft money and incumbency make it difficult for congress to reform campaign finance?
LMAO ... Maybe you you ask the Democrats !!!
Democrats have to recognize that since the 73rd Congress in 1933, for a majority of the last 65 years, Democratic Houses of Representatives and Democratic Senates have CONTROLLED the nation and the President. A TOTAL of 38 Sessions with Democrats in CONTROL for 28 of those!
WE need to inform/TELL our political representatives that WE NEED TO PASS a Constitutional Amendment for the LINE ITEM VETO.
This will keep the SPECIAL INTEREST GARBAGE from being attached to valuable legislation.
If Congress wants to give the president that power, they will have to pass a constitutional amendment, Supreme Justice John Paul Stevens said. ';If there is to be a new procedure in which the president will play a different role in determining the text of what may become a law, such change must come not by legislation but through the amendment procedures set forth in Article V of the Constitution,'; Stevens said, on June 25th, 1998.
IF your special interest is SO valuable, why do you have to HIDE it in valuable legislation?
So, with them REFUSING to PASS the Line Item Veto, in reality, the House and Senate have REALLY been controlling the country!!
AND, with the CURRENT Senate and Congress having the WORST approval rating in HISTORY, hopefully we will see a LOT of changes after the general elections.
A recent Reuters poll is out and Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid have pulled an upset: They have managed to make George Walker Bush twice as popular as CONGRESS.
THIS PAST WEEK - - JUST 13% of Likely Voters now say the DEMOCRATICALLY CONTROLLED Congress is doing a good or excellent job. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that 43% give Congress a poor rating.
Those results represent a slight decrease from last month, when 15% gave Congress a good or excellent rating.
.How does soft money and incumbency make it difficult for congress to reform campaign finance?
Why doesn't congress stay out of it? They always seem to mess it up, as with McCain Feingold. Big donors (corporations) use pacs and can bundle. It only hurts those popular with the general populace. And tracks information about political views and giving habits that is none of the governments's business, as well.

How can I write an amazing campaign speech for a student council election?
I am a high school student, running for president. What are some things that would persuade you to vote for someone? I know I can't change cafeteria food or dress code--i really don't want to make empty promises. But what I'm having trouble with is coming up with a good opening and closing, and some ideas to talk about. Help Please???!!!How can I write an amazing campaign speech for a student council election?
Lie. Lie. Lie.
(Well...... it worked for Obama, eh?)How can I write an amazing campaign speech for a student council election?
I heard a good one which was a funny list of parodies of past famous speeches.
';He who sheds his lead today will forever be my brother...
';I have a dream that this school will not vote based on the colour of one's hair but the content of their heart. (the candidate was ginger)
and so forth...
Also end with a catch phrase that rhymes and mentions you.
Copy some stuff from Stalin, something along the lines of blood alone moves the wheels of history!
